The python-dev HOWTO has now been cut up and rearranged into a set of Web pages at http://www.python.org/dev/ .
Thanks, Andrew!
Please suggest additional things that should be explained in these pages, or that should be linked to. Comments on the accuracy of the "Python Culture" page are also welcome; it might be missing some important points, or it might describe my idealization of how we try to behave. :)
And if anyone has suggestions on how make the pages more likely to attract new developers to Python, I'm all ears!
Well, linking to it from the developer info on the home page would help... I wonder if the *only* developer link on the home page should go to /dev/. That means that all the info currently at the bottom of the home page (under the heading "For developers") should be folded into the /dev/ index page. The "Python at SF" link in the left sidebar should probably point to the /dev/ section. I also wonder of we can replace one of the 8 items in the page-top menu with a developers link? But which one? --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
